Another NFL player has been arrested for domestic violence. The latest, on September 17th, was Cardinals RB Jonathan Dwyer:

“Police say Arizona Cardinals running back Jonathan Dwyer broke his wife’s nose with a head-butt during an argument that began after she learned about his recent phone contact with another woman. Search-warrant records made public Tuesday say the July 21 argument came after Dwyer’s wife came to believe her husband was cheating. Dwyer was arrested last week after his wife told police her husband assaulted her on July 21 and 22 at their Phoenix apartment.”

“In the first encounter, police say Dwyer attempted to kiss and undress his wife, but she refused. Someone who heard the argument called police, who showed up at the apartment but did not make an arrest. Dwyer hid in a shower and his wife said she hadn’t been assaulted and denied he was in the home because the running back threatened to kill himself in front of her and their child if she told police about the assault, police said. The next day, Dwyer punched his wife in the face and threw a shoe at her and instead struck their 17-month-old son, whom she was holding, police said. The child wasn’t injured. As his wife tried to call police, Dwyer grabbed her cellphone and threw it down from the apartment’s second story, police said.”
